Abstract:

The upgrading of the low-grade highways and the rehabilitation of expressways, which are the major tasks for China highway industry, lead to huge needs for asphalt pavement recycling. This paper gave a general introduction of asphalt pavement recycling practices in China mainland. The Ministry of Transport (MOT) China enacted a ministry level specification for asphalt pavement recycling in 2008, in which the project evaluation, the requirements for materials, the mixture design, the manufacture and construction of recycling, and the quality control, etc., are all specified. Some key information of this specification was introduced briefly in this paper. As for engineering practices, cold recycling is more popular than hot recycling in China mainland for the time being. The reasons that hindering the use of hot recycling were analyzed, the debates on the performance of cold recycling mixtures and which kind of recycling agent is better, emulsified asphalt or foamed asphalt were also discussed. Some representative recycling projects were briefly introduced. In the end, the possible research focuses of asphalt pavement recycling technologies were presented based on China mainland highway network development practical needs.
